		<description><![CDATA[If you follow Mary since she was convicted (took a plea deal) in the first week of January you will see the same thing over and over and over.

#1 theme.. Taking Responsibility--sort of....
 
January 9th, &quot;I take full responsibility&quot; &quot;I offer apologies, not excuses&quot;

July 21st, &quot;But I accept responsibility and offer apologies, not excuses&quot;

#2 theme.. (the excuses)
January 9th,  &quot;I unintentionally walked out of the store&quot;
January 9th,  &quot;I intended to purchase what I had, but I didn&#039;t&quot;
January 9th, &quot;the situation where I made this absentminded error&quot;

July 21st..Hayashi said she had been distracted by a phone call when she left with the unpaid items. &quot;Of course, I intended to pay for them,&quot;

September 17th. &quot;whether you &#039;meant&#039; to do it or not&quot;
(tough crowd on Saturday, so she couldn&#039;t make the excuse quite as direct)

September 17th..  &quot;I believe that I made a &#039;honest&#039; human mistake&quot;

Theme #3..  I&#039;m nearly a victim..

January 9th  &quot;This has been a painful experience&quot;

July 21,  &quot;The world doesn&#039;t end when you make a personal mistake,&quot;

September 17th  &quot;I paid a price for that&quot;

September 17th  &quot;I paid the price for that&quot; 

Theme #4  Brain tumor  
NOTE, this theme was discarded on July 21st after 6 months of use... No longer operative according to Mary.

July 21st. She said it&#039;s &quot;too bad&quot; her lawyer had mentioned the tumor to reporters because &quot;my health was certainly not a factor in anything that happened&quot;

Never mind she was by the side of her lawyer January 6th when he said about the brain tumor,  &quot;there is no other reason she would have taken the merchandise&quot;

Mary then on January 9th in her own statment said &quot;My medical condition may have complicated the situation&quot;

Finally Theme #5  The SMEAR

July 21st. &quot;&quot;My opponents may use the issue to try to smear me, but I trust the voters to be smarter than that,&quot;

September 17th,  &quot;My opponents may try to use that to smear me&quot;

Not to worry, on Saturday  Mary made it clear,  
&quot;I&#039;m gonna move forward with integrity&quot;

Integrity.... I see Mary&#039;s picture next to that definition in Websters (too bad its her mug shot)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spunky response under the circumstances.  Not convincing, but spunky.  However, somebody should inform her that when your opponent tells the truth about your misdeeds, it&#039;s not a &quot;smear.&quot;]]></description>
